Makers Lunch with PENNY FOWLER

12noon - 2pm

Fri, 6th Apr 2018 - Fri, 6th Apr 2018

This month we are delighted to have Penny Fowler as our Maker's Lunch guest. She is a London based potter whose work reflects 21st century living and the city in which she lives and works. It is characterised by clean, precise lines and forms using a strong palette. Her objective working with clay is to create beautiful dynamic forms.

Penny has shown her work at Bevere before and regular visitors will be aware of the impact that her elegant and contemporary work has on viewing. We are in no doubt that this will be an enjoyable and stimulating event. Do book your place for lunch before all the available places are taken.

An opportunity to preview the new display with our ceramic curator, Stuart Dickens and featured maker then over lunch enjoy an informal discussion.
Places are limited to 10 persons and cost £15

This is the period leading to Christmas and we know that the ceramic enthusiasts will be looking for something special. This group of featured makers will hopefully meet expectations.

Once again, we are fortunate to showing the work of one of the masters of contemporary studio ceramics  Walter Keeler. He maintains the high standard which is one of the Gallery hallmarks as well as being a fitting maker to share in our celebration.

This year is an important milestone. It marks Bevere’s 10th Anniversary as a specialist ceramic gallery. During that decade, we have featured many ceramicists and displayed thousands of pieces. The reputation of the Gallery for showing high quality studio ceramics has grown considerably over the decade and Bevere is now highly respected by both makers and ceramic enthusiasts.Another exciting month with contrasting approaches to ceramic art. Two new makers add to the growing list of makers  what better way to celebrate an anniversary!

Pottery by Jane Hamlyn, Clare Crouchman & Claire Seneviratne
This is the first of featured maker programmes which celebrates our anniversary year and brings together exciting contrasts in style and making techniques. Importantly, it includes eminent makers who have shown here before - Jane Hamlyn was our first exhibitor as well as new names who will be showing at Bevere for the first time.

10th Annual Graduate Show 2016 is an event that will bring together some of the most exciting new talent to emerge from the 2015 ceramic graduates. Over the years, a number of the selected graduates have continued to be regular exhibitors at Bevere and become established names in studio ceramics.

For the 2014 season - reflecting the philosophy of the gallery - we have selected outdoor work by 12 makers who demonstrate a singular voice and high levels of craftsmanship.
For the first time the show will be in three parts, each with a distinctive character. All the work will be for sale. It is our hope that, over the four months, visitors will see how art can enhance any outdoor space and bring with it as much pleasure as the art and craft that decorates the home.

MARGARET CURTIS is new to the gallery and will be showing her stoneware vessels which combine contemporary and traditional sensibilities
RUTHANNE TUDBALL- new work from a popular Bevere Exhibitor
CAROLYN GENDERS - a new body of work from Carolyn who has been an enthusiastic supporter of this gallery for many years
LISA HAMMOND and TIM BURNS- Pots & Paintings

Potters-
CHRIS CARTER is one of the master potters and we will be showing another body of his newest work.
ADAM BUICK - we have wanted to show his signature moon jars and large vessels for some time and he has now agreed to be here this month

Potters:-
EDDIE CURTIS has not been at the gallery for at least four years. We are pleased to welcome him back. This is studio ceramics of the highest order.
KATE SCHURICHT - seen at CAL and we are delighted to be showing her work here for the first time.

It seemed entirely appropriate therefore, that Bevere Gallery - whose 40th Anniversary it is this year - should invite the CCA, which is also in its 40th year, to join with us in what will be a memorable celebration.

Cornwall has a distinct cultural identity and over the last century it has been a magnet for artists and craftspeople from far and wide. However, it wasn’t until 1973 that a unifying body  The Cornwall Crafts Association (CCA)  was established.

Potters-
- MARK SMITH returns with new ceramic and wood sculptures that were a great success when he was here a couple of years ago.
- ANTONIA SALMON who will be letting us have a small group of her exquisitely made forms. It is some time since she was last in the gallery.
- MORGAN HALL returns after many months with a beautifully crafted one off piece
- JITKA PALMER back with her new work in earthenware
- ROSE WALLACE is new to the Gallery with her flat back figurative series

Potters-
CLAIRE MURRAY
Her inventive and skilfully modelled sculptures always raise a smile. (New work due in the Gallery mid month)

A veritable ceramic cornucopia of work which will provide diversity and contrast. Sam Hall who lives and works in St Ives is a ceramicist whom we have wanted to show in the gallery for a long time. This will be entirely new work as he has not exhibited over the last year. Sam’s pots have great presence and we know that they will make a strong visual impact in the gallery and upon our visitors. Tim Andrews needs no introduction  his work has been in our gallery since the early days. He is at the top of his powers as one of the country’s leading raku potters. Some of his most recent work is stunningly original and we know that his selected group of pots for this show will not disappoint.

GALLERY GARDEN & SCULPTURE TRAIL - Over the lawns, down the drive of the Georgian residence leading through the canopys of laurels to the wild area of woodland & then back over the lawns, through another laurel tunnel with views
across the fields. Lots of very varied sculptures along the way.
We welcome children but they must be supervised at all times

IN February our main gallery space was remodelled to enable us to show a wider range of studio ceramics and original art and craft. It will have constantly changing displays where new work will be introduced each month
Whilst we will not be having ‘feature’ exhibitions, each month we will be highlighting the work of individual makers
Please check back for other featured makers later in 2011, or if you would like to send your email address to enquiries@beveregallery.com we can include you on updates

'Through the Eyes of the Artist' is a collaborative exhibition at The Central Gallery, Malvern between Bevere Gallery and four local, professional artists who first met 20 years ago when Chris Howells was assembling a group of artists to exhibit at what was to become an annual exhibition in Alcester, Warwickshire. Their paths have crossed many times since but this is the first time for about 10 years that they have exhibited together outside a commercial gallery

The pots and paintings in this show were specially selected and we are in no doubt that this intimate group of work represents a potter still full of creative energy. Robin has been a singular figure in British ceramics for at least forty years.

This exhibition was created from an initial thought about artists and makers who have shared their lives and their studios over many years. Whilst partners inevitably share common interests, this show is designed to demonstrate how their individual personalities are reflected in their work.

THE GRADUATE SHOW
As well as showing the established names in ceramics and other crafts, we believe that we have a role in promoting the work of those talented artists/makers that emerge each year from colleges and universities
PRINTS FOR CHILDREN & THE YOUNG AT HEART - In The Café

Work by 17 of the best graduates from 2007 in ceramics and glass
2007 was a vintage year and the graduates in this exhibition are those that the gallery felt have a distinctive voice and the talent to make their careers in studio glass and ceramics

‘Sculpture is an art of the open air. Daylight, sunlight is necessary to it, and for me its best setting and complement is nature’. Henry Moore.
Celebrating 50 of the CPA 21 Sculptors form a Woodland and Garden Trail -

This exhibition will provoke and amuse as well as demonstrate the point at which ceramics and fine art meet. Two figurative potters bring their particular perspective to the human form and John Higgins thrown and slabbed pots provide a strong contrast.

This group show brings together both new and established potters to demonstrate the versatility of ceramic art and craft.
Yet another opportunity to admire the skill and ingenuity of contemporary studio potters.
